Both Daschle and Geithner, paid their penalties and back taxes. They are now, while certainly not convicted, at least admitted felons, and should be treated as such.

My analogy: If I intentionally shoot someone and they die, but I have second thoughts and revive them, I still should at least go to jail for trying to kill them. I shouldn't get to say "Oops, it was a mistake", I'll just pay the guy's hospital bills", and then get handed a lucrative new job in charge of catching people who shoot each other.
